I’m doing a study for my Ph.D that I could really use your help with. I’m looking for Australian video gamers aged 16+ to complete a series of surveys over the course of 12 months.

Why should you care:Aside from the satisfaction of knowing you’ve helped me out () I will provide all respondents with their choice of a $10 voucher from either JB Hi-Fi or Ozgameshop. Voucher codes will be mailed according to the details you provide in the survey.

What you need to do:Follow this link and complete the survey. Should take about 30 minutes. During the survey you’ll provide an email address which I’ll use to contact you in three, six, nine and twelve months' time to repeat the survey to see if and how your responses change.

Please note that all participation can be done online and anonymously. You don’t need to post in this thread, you can just go ahead and complete the survey and I’ll send you an email in three months’ time. That’s it!

Who can participate:You must be:

At least 16 years old,

Currently living in Australia,

Able to provide a valid email address for follow-up,

Able to participate for the entire duration of the study (12 months).

Oh, and you’re more than welcome to tell your friends/family about the study so long as they meet the above criteria. In fact I need as many participants as I can get, so you’d be helping me out if you did!

If you have any questions or comments you’re welcome to post them here in this thread or shoot me a PM and I’ll do my best to answer them.
